Fire Base Illingworth
by Phil Keith
The battle went on, mostly in the dark, for hours. Exposed ammunition canisters were hit and blew up, causing a thunderous explosion inside the outpost that left dust so thick it jammed the handheld weapons of the GIs. Much of the combat became hand-to-hand. In all twenty five brave Americans lost their lives and another fifty-four were wounded. Nearly one-hundred enemy bodies were recovered. It was one of the most vicious small unit firefights in the history of US forces in Vietnam.
As in his acclaimed book, Blackhorse Riders, a finalist for the 2013 Colby Award and Silver Medalist for the 2013 Military Writer's Society Award in History, Phil Keith uncovers a harrowing true story of bravery and sacrifice by the men who fought valiantly to hold FSB Illingworth—a tale never before told and one that will not soon be forgotten.
